From the CSS 2 specification:

Note that the A:hover must be placed after the A:link and A:visited rules,
since otherwise the cascading rules will hide the 'color' property of the
A:hover rule. Similarly, because A:active is placed after A:hover, the
active color (lime) will apply when the user both activates and hovers over
the A element.

In a navigation panel I try to place a bullet before each entry when the link is hovered at (see http://www.shambhala.de).

Hi all, I'm using the following code in my website, and it's looking totally different on IE and Firefox. It actually works on IE while Firefox is weird.

They have to be inactive links, because they don't actually go anywhere. They only serve the purpose of changing color whether they're...

I'm trying to use the hover pseudo-attribute to display footnotes in documentation. The footnotetext is hidden until you hover over the footnotemark. This work well in Safari and Firefox, but I can't seem to get it to work in MSIE. Is this even possible in MSIE? If so, can you explain why this CSS doesn't work? <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html>

Hi there, I've got a gif with (highly) irregular shapes (lots of jigsaw pieces) that I want to map so that each piece is a link... The pieces are currently just a frame drawing, but as they are hovered over I want them to be coloured in.

Hi, I've googled for this answer but I don't think I know the right search phrase to type... I have a fairly simple hover effect. When the user mouses over a link, a box appears with extra info. This works for all browsers. However, in IE7 only, it's as if the transparency is set to 60%. In other words, I can still see the text which is present without hovering. In FF, Safari, Chrome etc, it's totally blocked out when I hover. Is there...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
